Hi Davide Cavalca

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:05:52

It's already been my customary 5 minutes ... so ... I guess I'll start.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:06:16

Now that we actually have feature reqeusts, I've changed the agenda and will start with them.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

!topic Requested Features

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:07:17

Since we haven't talked about them before, I'll go in order.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:08:01

https://pagure.io/centos-sig-alt-images/sig/issue/3

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:08:19

I've given this a try.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:09:07

I can get it so that the live images at least try to do persistent media, but I'm not positive that the live image stuff has the code.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:10:01

In the end, the bootup will fail because it can't find the partition, even if I make it by hand and label it correctly.

<@davide:cavalca.name>

19:10:24

that lorax PR is marked as draft

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:10:49

Ya ... and I believe it is. :)

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:11:19

Anyway, I need to write what I've learned in the issue, and say it's at the bottom of my list of things to work on right now.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:11:54

I've given it a attempt, but after a few days, I figured I'd try one of the other features.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:12:09

https://pagure.io/centos-sig-alt-images/sig/issue/4

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:12:52

So this one I haven't even attempted, not that I don't want to, I just haven't had time.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:13:43

Since we did something similar for the Fedora KDE Mobile Spin, I've seen what needs to happen, it's just a matter of doing it.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:14:02

I'm hoping to have this done by the end of this quarter, and have it available with the other images.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:14:33

Oh ... but there is the other point, of getting the infrastructure to push those types of images to production.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:15:12

Anyway, this one shouldn't be hard because it is a known thing, it's just getting the time.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:15:39

https://pagure.io/centos-sig-alt-images/sig/issue/7

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:16:06

I'm rather excited about this one.

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

19:16:24

!hi

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:16:27

Mainly because I want to put it on my windows machine.

Hi Conan Kudo

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

19:17:44

I've done some improvements to the kiwi Koji plugin that will be part of 1.35

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:17:54

I'm planning on working on a WSL image this weekend, see if I can get it working locally.

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

19:18:10

Hopefully once released, we can get CBS updated

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:18:37

How hard is it to get CBS updated?

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

19:19:05

We need to ask arrfab

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:19:38

Are there any new features? Or is it mainly less bugs and faster?

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:22:01

Anyway, for WSL, after I get it working ... we'll have to decide what to do with it. Would it really go into Production if you can't just install it.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:23:09

That's all I have for the open feature requests.

19:24:11

Since Kiwi made it into epel10, I've been trying to get a Live image built with it.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:24:35

We're close, but stuck at xisxwayland

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:24:56

I have a bug open to get it in, but it still has a bit over a week to go.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:26:24

I think I've got most everything we need in a local c10s branch of our kiwi-descriptions ... I think things are in place enough that I can push it up, even though it's not totally working yet.

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

19:26:56

Bunch of little features to expose kiwi capabilities

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:27:26

Cool.

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

19:27:46

It was done to make it so you can make images exactly like how Pungi wants them made

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:28:41

Sounds like it will work better on Fedora, which is good. But we don't have access to pungi on CBS

Hi Neil Hanlon

<@nhanlon:beeper.com>

19:29:10

heyo, sorry i'm late.. lost this off my calendar at some point

!topic Whats Next

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:30:45

So, the beginning of Oct is the beginning of the quarter, and I'll do the quarterly image builds.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:31:22

As I said before, I'm going to try to get the aarch64 raw images created for that.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:31:30

So we'll have something new for the quarter.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:32:26

It's possible I might have WSL images ... but the aarch64 images are a higher priority for me SIG wise ... although WSL is higher priority for me personal wise.

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

19:32:51

No but those options are usable manually too

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:33:16

Oohhh ... ok. So I can use them in my local builds. Very nice.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:34:37

I'm going to move things to Open Floor

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:34:40

!topic Open Floor

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:35:08

Does anyone have anything they wanted to bring up for the Open Floor?

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:36:00

If not, I'm good letting ya'll have some extra time back.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:37:39

Well, it was good seeing ya'll physically this past month, and especially that ya'll could make it to the AltImages Presentation at Flock this time.

<@nhanlon:beeper.com>

19:38:08

I'm bummed i missed it

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:39:06

I'm still waiting for it to make it to the youtube channel ... I know it's in the long version, but I mean the "just the one talk" video.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:39:18

I'm going to call it a meeting.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

19:39:35

I'll talk to you all next month, or on Matrix.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>
